I am not holding out hope :) But it's okay, it's an issue I am okay with. Besides, maybe I'll run off with one of the men who follow me in their beat up cars while asking if I'm married, that would show him! :D

Oddly, we were looking for an IT person about a month ago. I'll let you know how the current one works out. Right now, she has a scary deer-caught-in-the-headlights look about her, so I don't hold out much hope. The last one only lasted a month. I'll let you know, but I doubt you would want the job. We've only got the Cardinals and D-backs...

@Viv: When my car stereo was stolen (from my 73 Pinto!) I just stopped listening to music. This is why I am so behind the times when it comes to the music scene these days. Aside form children's music, about the only thing I listen to now-a-days is the soundtrack from Shrek. Don't become like me! Get the new stero installed at all costs! :eek: :D
That there; exactly the kinda diversion we coulda used.

Sorry to hear about your day! *hug* I think the suggestions given have been excellent. You really should have the spot in the garage. I now understand why the rabbits have issues with your SO.

If you would like a new job, I may be hiring a new employee. Would you care to move to Chicago? I am sure we could pay for relocation. I can brighten your life with the exciting career opportunities that only Insurance can bring. :rolleyes:

It may help you knowing that I will be heading to Wrigley Field for a Cubs game this afternoon. I will bow my head an observe a moment of silence on your behalf before I have my first beer.

You should take the rest of the day off. In fact, you may be coming down with the flu. You might need tomorrow off as well. This will make for a nice 4 day weekend.

I hope things get better!

:eek: :eek: I agree! it is scary!! How many of those thump sounds could have been innocent pedestrians?? LOL! I take it your "pavement" is your road? Over here "pavement" is, what is the Americanism? Ah! Sidewalk? :D

No Ysh, our pavement is our sidewalk also. Doesn't this explain some of the hazards of transportation in Minnesota. I'll remember from now on to look twice when exiting any structure. Here comes Viv in third gear chasing the lovely rita the meter maid.

Heres a post that should be marked down in SYM permanent records, like HLD's one word post, and where his alleged smilie should have been placed too. I think this is the first time Ive seen Fas hug. :D

Can going against ones very nature be 'maturing'? I'm not a philosophigmizer, so I can't answer that..but it is disturbing. :)
